< Sie Corinth 4 >

1 Kowos in nunku kacsr lah kut mwet kulansap lun Christ, ac ituku kunasr in karingin ma pwaye lun God su tia eteyuk meet.
Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
2 Ma se eneneyuk sin sie mwet kulansap uh pa elan orekma oaru nu sin mwet kacto lal.
Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
3 Inge, wangin elya luk kowos ku mwet saya uh fin nununkeyu; nga sifacna nga tia pac nununkeyu.
But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man’s judgment: yes, I judge not my own self.
4 Nga pulakin sik sifacna mu wangin ma sufal luk, tusruktu nga tia ku in sifacna akpwayei lah wangin mwetik. Leum pa ac nununkeyu.
For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judges me is the Lord.
5 Ouinge kowos in tia nununku kutena mwet meet liki pacl fal. Nununku safla uh ac fah soano tuku lun Leum. El ac fah use ma nukewa ma oan yen lohsr uh nu ke kalem, ac akkalemye ma lukma nukewa insien mwet uh. Na kais sie mwet ac fah eis kaksak sin God, fal nu ke orekma lal.
Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.
6 Mwet lili luk, nga fahk ma inge keik ac Apollos tuh in mwe srikasrak nu suwos, tuh kowos fah ku in etu kalmen fahk se inge, “Tia alukela ma oakwuk in Ma Simusla.” Kowos in tia konkin ke sie sesr ac pilesru el ngia.
And these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that you might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
7 Su oru tuh kom in fulat liki mwet ngia? Ya tia God pa asot ma nukewa nu sum? Na fuka tuh kom in konkin, srulun oana ma su oan yurum tia ma itukot nu sum?
For who makes you to differ from another? and what have you that you did not receive? now if you did receive it, why do you glory, as if you had not received it?
8 Ku kowos falkin tari ma nukewa kowos enenu? Ya kowos kasrupi tari? Ya kowos tokosrala tari, a kut tia? Kwal, nga kena tuh in pwaye lah kowos tokosra, tuh kut in wi kowos pac tokosra.
Now you are full, now you are rich, you have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God you did reign, that we also might reign with you.
9 Tuh nga nunku mu God El filiya tuh acn sin mwet sap uh pa etok, oana mwet su wotla mu in misa ye mutun mwet uh, tuh in mwe intoe nu sin lipufan ac mwet fin faclu nufon.
For I think that God has set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men.
10 Tuh ke sripen Christ kut mwet lalfon, a kowos mwet lalmwetmet yurin Christ! Kut munas, a kowos ku! Pilesreyuk kut, a akfulatyeyuk kowos.
We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are despised.
11 Nwe ke pacl se inge, kut masrinsral ac malu; kut nukum mahn nuknuk; anwuk kut; kut takusrkusr mweyen wangin acn sesr;
Even to this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling place;
12 ac kut orekma upa in akfalye enenu lasr. Ke mwet uh kaskas koluk kacsr, kut pre in akinsewowoyalos; ke akkeokyeyuk kut, kut muteng na,
And labor, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:
13 ke mwet uh akkolukye inesr, kut topuk ke kas kulang. Nwe ke pacl se inge, orek kut oana pus ma sisila lun faclu, ku kutkut ma arulana fohkfok!
Being defamed, we entreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things to this day.
14 Nga simis ma inge nu suwos, tia mweyen nga lungse in akmwekinye kowos, a in luti kowos oana tulik saok nutik sifacna.
I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.
15 Tuh finne oasr singoul tausin mwet karingin kowos in moul in Christian lowos, a papa sefanna tomowos. Tuh ke kowos ma sefannala yurin Christ Jesus, nga pa papa tomowos, ke sripen nga use Pweng Wo nu suwos.
For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have you not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
16 Ke ma inge nga kwafe suwos, kowos in oru oana ke nga oru uh.
Why I beseech you, be you followers of me.
17 Ke sripa se inge nga supwalot Timothy nu yuruwos, su tulik saok ac oaru nutik in moul in Christian. El fah akesmakinye kowos ke ouiya nukewa su nga fahsr kac ke moul sasu in kupasryang nu sin Christ Jesus, ac su nga luti in church nukewa yen nukewa.
For this cause have I sent to you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
18 Kutu suwos mutawauk inse fulat mweyen kowos nunku mu nga ac tia fahsrot nu yuruwos.
Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.
19 Fin ou lungse lun Leum, nga ac sa fahsrot nu yuruwos, ac nga fah sifacna liye fin pwaye oasr ku yurin mwet inse fulat ingan, ku mwe na sramsram wel.
But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
20 Tuh Tokosrai lun God tia ma ke kas, a ke ku.
For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
21 Pia kac ma kowos lungse nga in oru? In fahsrot nu yuruwos ke sie mwe sringsring, ku ke ngunin lungse ac kulang?
What will you? shall I come to you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
